PDQuick Tip: We all know that you can never have enough storage, and one of the most popular places to store things is under the bed. Try using an old bureau drawer to make under-bed storage efficient and easily accessible. Simply attach rolling casters to the bottom and you've got a solid, deep storage unit that is easy to retrieve when you need it. I've seen old individual drawers at yard sales and I've even seen new drawers being sold individually at the "tent sales" of major furniture dealers for as little as a dollar each. Next time you see one, buy it! Now you'll know what to do with it.
If you don't have an old bureau and can't find bureau drawers and you're a little handy, you can get the same result by making your own sturdy wooden box and adding casters.
Whichever option you choose, just don't forget to cover the top with fabric or a sheet (or even an old blanket). This will protect the garments from dust and the inevitable pet fur if you have cats that like to lounge under the bed!
